Bat and moth night- Marton mere 31/8/11

We set of from mine at around 8.30 we had just got onto yeadon way where we hit an old lady, ha ha moth that is. We arrived and jonny was already there and told us he had the barn owl. As soon as we set off we had a pipistrelle bat and a whole load of common rustic we arrived and they hadn't caught anything so me Aaron and jonny went for a walk and came back with heaps of stuff.
I found a sallow a lifer for me and Aaron we then went for a walk looking for bats around the mere as we reached the far end i found an angle shades then Aaron found another then we started checking the reedheads we found hundreds of sallow lesser broad borderd yellow underwing a smokey wainscott
